Re: Cleaning Interval on EDC

I carry a P99 which has an open hole at the back of the slide through which the rear of the striker protrudes to indicate cocked/not-cocked status. That hole seems like a dust/lint trap so I field strip and sweep that area out with a dry toothbrush once a week. Takes a couple of minutes.

Otherwise, a regular cleaning only after I have been to the range...

Edited to add: Actually my 'regular' cleaning is 90% done with a dry toothbrush; pulls out most of the residue and gunk, some extra attention to the feedramp if dirty, light relube, and that's it... wash toothbrush with a detergent and let dry for next time...
